The Democrats have veered into crazytown.
Their policies are spurring people to leave blue cities in droves.
And one shocking video in Gavin Newsom’s state proves the inmates are running the asylum.
Democrats have a legislative supermajority in California, and they’re using it to enact all sorts of bad laws.
But one of the biggest problems that has beleaguered big cities in California is far-left District Attorneys’ lax approach to prosecuting criminals.
Many fed up citizens say that’s because of big money from billionaire globalist George Soros and his family.
George Soros and his son Alexander not only have easy access to the Biden White House, but they’ve also used the elder Soros’ fortune to install District Attorneys and get their pro-crime policies implemented.
Among the results of that is that many businesses, especially small businesses, are essentially defenseless against theft.
Big chains are better able to put up defenses but that presents problems too

One Target store in San Francisco was forced to lock up entire aisles full of products in order to deter criminals.

Such videos have become commonplace in cities like San Francisco and New York.
Not only are thefts under $950 not prosecuted in San Francisco, but security guards or good Samaritans who intervene to stop thieves could face criminal charges.
So shameless thieves can literally fill up baskets full of groceries and just stroll out of the store.
And when District Attorneys won’t prosecute the cases, stores often don’t even bother calling the cops.
This is how blue cities get hollowed out.
The politicians get too greedy and too radical, and the middle class eventually leaves.
The same pattern is taking place in the Golden State, as California has seen net negative migration out of the state since 2020.
Meanwhile, the Soroses are doubling down on their plan.
The elder Soros recently defended bankrolling far-left prosecutors in a Wall Street Journal op-ed where he said, “Like most of us, I’m concerned about crime. One of government’s most important roles is to ensure public safety. I have been involved in efforts to reform the criminal-justice system for the more than 30 years I have been a philanthropist. Yet our system is rife with injustices that make us all less safe. The idea that we need to choose between justice and safety is false. They reinforce each other: If people trust the justice system, it will work. And if the system works, public safety will improve.”
The logic simply does not follow.
Communities are less safe when repeat offenders are put back on the streets to commit more crimes.
The Soroses and other leftists seem hell-bent on breaking the system altogether, regardless of how many law-abiding citizens get hurt in the process.
